Dear Sir,

We are Tibetan Independent and Freedom Party (I.I.F.P) I am the chairman of this party! We write this letter to you from Tibet on behalf of six millions Tibetan peoples.

Now Hong Kong is handovering to China from British. All over the world are pay attentin to this affairs! But no any country or organisatin realize Tibet- Chinese colonized. No one report about Tibetan condition! We think our country - Tibet is colonial country. Tibetan peoples are under colonial rule. China is colonialist! So we make urgent appeal. We asking china government give up colonial rule in Tibet. Special this time when china is taking back Hong Kong from British hand!

Tibet have been getting too much troubles since 1950. We almost lost all of our civilization. Forty years gone now. We are still living in the bitter chinese colonized dominated. But no one pay attention about china colony-our country Tibet! As you know. We have more than the thousand years independent history before 1950. Tibetan people are expecting for free and independent from china since 1950 upto now special this time! British give up Hong Kong's colonized ruling!

So we, most of Tibetan people also demand china that china should give up colonized rule in Tibet! We think that get freedom our Tibetan right! Tibet not belong to china like Hong Kong not belong to British! Why china can take back Hong Kong from British colonized rule. But don't give up its colonized rule in Tibet! U.N and any country should think about it! This not only for Tibet! This is for human right! for human's Dignity and Freedom! Including Tibetan people's!

That We most of the Tibetan special requiring chinese government. Finish chinese colonized rule in Tibet. Set Tibet refree! We are also asking U.N and all of the world pay close attention to Tibet situation! We are expecting from your support and help! We are one tape of humanity. We also need dignity and free life!!!

Yours faithfully
